Today, I want you to setup a few folders that we'll use to stay organized. We'll do this both on the computer's local storage and in Google Drive.
First, let's look a bit at the computer itself, then we'll talk about making files and folders. This video will also show you how to right click (secondary click) and enable right click (secondary click) on your mouse.
NOTE: These videos are hosted on YouTube; sometimes YouTube doesn't behave on the district network. I've also provided a link to the video in Google Drive in case YouTub misbehaves for you.

Now that you know a bit more about the computers, and how to adjust some settings, I want you to customize a things or two and setup a bit of folder organization on the computer. Follow along as you watch the video. I say to upload a screenshot at the end to Canvas, but instead, you'll just add it to your Google Shared Folder (we create this in the next video).

We're going to more or less do the same thing in Drive.
At the end, submit the correct Share Link in Canvas.

For your remaining time, I want you to play with Google Sites. This is where most of my students keep their portfolio (some of the older students may have other places for their portfolio). Even if you aren't sure about using Google Sites long term, it's a good place to start.
If you want to see an example site that I'm working on in Google Sites, you can look at a few of the one's I've worked on; my old portfolio, and/or my new portfolio, and/or a site I started this summer to document learning about some video software.
